The first instance of our liquid-propellant rocket engine, powered by kerosene and high-test peroxide, is assembled and ready for firing on a test stand at MAI.

It all started about a year ago with the creation of 3D models and the release of design documentation.

55 years ago a Soviet cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin completed the first human spaceflight in history, orbiting the Earth in Vostok spacecraft.

Dear colleagues and friends, we congratulate you on our common anniversary — the day when man first stepped to the stars!

Some events have occurred shortly before the anniversary day.

MILKY WAY, April 1. Lin Industrial has announced it raised 10 mln of Galactic Credit Units during its next round of investment. The funding was received from a major alien industrial investor, whose name is not disclosed. "He has long been interested in space and is #29 on the Orion Arm's Wealthiest Humanoids list", — says Alexey Kaltushkin, the company CEO.

This funding from the investor will help establish new trade routes in our arm of the Galaxy. This goal will be achieved by Lin Industrial thanks to creating an antimatter powered starship.

Lin Industrial continues building a rocket to test the CS at supersonic speeds (currently it is flight tested at subsonic). In late December a successful flight was made by SVZ-1 rocket, which is to be the base for building a supersonic rocket, while on January 6, 2016 Lin Industrial tested a new solid motor.

MDT solid motor with thrust of about 8 kgf (~80 N) burned at the static testbed for about 19 seconds.

Before the New Year, on December 29 our rocket for testing the control system prototype made its flight. At Lin Industrial we traditionally call it "flying testbed", because the rocket has no independent value, but serves for testing the control system.

The rocket was not a modified old design, but an entirely new device. Among the conspicuous differences (except color, of course) — smaller cameras and tail section designed to contain four engines. Due to extra engines the testbed flight can last longer, therefore there is more time to validate the control system.

Today we publish an extended description of the "flying testbed" version 2.0.
